Tool: Vensim

Introduction

This simulation focuses on addressing factors that have an effect on beer fermentation and influence the alcohol percentage in the final product. It should suit the brewery makers in the food industry to better evaluate beer-making conditions to make preferred outcomes of alcohol levels. This simulation was developed as part of the project for the 4IT496 Simulation of Systems class.

Method

The Vensim PLE modeling software was chosen for the solution of the above-described case.
